Check your Shampoo !
Go home and check your shampoo!
Change it before it's too late...Check the ingredients listed on your shampoo bottle, and see if they have a substance by the name of "Sodium Laureth Sulfate", or simply "SLS".
This substance Is found in most shampoos, and the manufacturers use it because it produces a lot of foam and it is cheap.
BUT the fact is that SLS is used to scrub garage floors, and it is very strong!!!
It is also proven by some scientist in USA that it can cause cancer in the long run, and this is not a joke. I went home and checked my shampoo (Vidal Sassoon); it doesn't contain it; however, others such as Vo5, Palmolive, Paul Mitchell, l'Oreal, the new empShampoo from Body Shop, etc. contain this substance.
The first ingredient listed (which means it is the single most prevalent ingredient) in Clairol's Herbal Essences is Sodium Laureth Sulfate.
So I contacted one company, and I told them their product contains a substance that will cause people to have cancer. They said, 'Yeah, we knew about it but there is nothing we can do about it because we need that substance to produce foam'.
By the way, Colgate's toothpaste also contains the same substance to produce the "bubbles". They said they are going to send me some information.
Research has shown that in the 1980s, the chance of getting cancer was 1 out of 8000 and now, in the 1990s, the chances of getting cancer is 1 out of 3, which is very serious. So I hope that to you will take this seriously and pass this on to all the people you know, and hopefully, we can stop "giving" ourselves this cancer.
This is serious, after you have read this, pass it on to as many people as possible; this is not a chain letter, it concerns your family and your health!
